Key: G

Introduction:

 G  D   G  D 
Verse 1
                       G                                                                                       D               C 
I am a man with both feet planted on the ground
                         G                                                                       D 
I'm the one they depend on to keep things tied down
                                                 G                                                           D                     C 
And when the wind blows they all need to know
                         G                                                                                   D                                           G 
I'm the daddy, the savior and I'm sorry there's a storm
                 C                                                                                                                               G 
But sometimes I don't feel that strong and a part of me surrenders
                                 Am                                                                                       D 
What the man in me has forgotten, the boy in me remembers
                                                     G  C                                         G 
        When I could fly, when I could fly
                                             C                                                       G 
        Above the fields and valleys wide
                             C                                                                   Em     D 
        Earth below and above me sky
                                           C                     D                     G 
        I could do anything when I could fly
Interlude
 G  D 
Verse 2
I have a boy, now he's a lot like me
                 F                                                                                     C 
This world has gotten heavy as I've gotten older
                                     Cm                                                     G/B                                                                           D 
But when I lift this boy of mine high above my shoulders
